So I think we should take feature/distro freeze (I'm not sure of what is what) a month earlier, to get a month more to test and debug.
I'm not sure your proposal really helps. Let me give an example with GNOME & KDE. The 8 months development cycle of openSUSE means that we have this happening (since both GNOME and KDE have a 6 months development cycle, but at different times in the year): + for 12.1: release with a 1.5 month old GNOME and 3.5 months old KDE + for 12.2: release with a 3.5 months old GNOME and 5.5 months old KDE + for 12.3: release with a 5.5 months old GNOME and 1.5 months old KDE Now, if you shift the freeze one month earlier, it won't change things drastically, unless you decide that shipping with the 1.5 month old desktop is bad -- and I'd disagree here, since that means you ship a really old desktop. FWIW, my experience with 12.1 is that we get a lot of reports in RC1 and RC2, most of which would also have been reportable much earlier.
